Finally, a decent sale laptop. Acer Aspire 3, 15.6" FHD 5700U, 16GB, 512GB, Walmart.com, $359

Robot or human?

I'm really tempted by this, and I could use a laptop for playing tekken 8 with the guys. (my desktops aren't set up, and even if they were, I'm essentially house-bound on a lift-chair.)
So I have a daily-use laptop for AT, etc.

How does something like this compare with either a Ryzen 3 1200 w/RX 570 4GB, or a Ryzen 5 4500 and a RX 6600 8GB?

Would I even be able to play it at 1080P low, render scale 70, TAAU or FSR 1.0?

Uhh, maybe not. APUs are worse than death for the competitive gamer.

That's a pretty nice deal but the port layout on the sides of the laptop is kinda lame. The right side has one USB 3.x Type-A and a headphone jack (plus a Kensington lock) and the left side is loaded down with power port, Ethernet, HDMI, two USB 3.x Type-A, and one USB Type-C. The USB Type-C is centered on the left side so you'll have a cable in the way if you want to use it for something useful like charging or connecting a multi-function dock.
